Having just taken over as head writer for our news-parody sketch show DSI Witness News, I’m gearing up to take the show to the next level, with more content and more avenues of distribution. My first push is to add new writers with joke-writing experience and an interest in local news.

We’ve been on the air at WCHL 1360 AM radio for over a year now, every weekday at 8:20 am and 5:55 pm—and this summer we’re going to start looking for even more ways to get our material out there, to make DSI Witness News an even bigger part of the community than it already is.

So we’re auditioning for three new writers, and I’m looking for you to submit material for consideration. If you’ve not seen or heard the show, we’ve designed it in the style of SNL’s Weekend Update, with a mix of headline jokes and longer character bits, all based on local news and events in Chapel Hill-Carrboro.

If you’re at all interested in being a part of our writing team, great!

Is this still valid? I'd love to work on DSI Witness News...for your mom...in bed...NOT! See, I've memorized every comedic cliche imaginable. Oh, I also know how to use profanity in addition to the word "gay" in a sentence to create INSTANTANEOUS comedy!
